Details of New Concentrating Plant, at Anyox
Showing How the Ore will
be Separated and Saved
The-new Granby concentrator,
plans for which are now underway
at Anyox, is intended to handle the
lower grade ores from the Hidden
Creek Mine. The new plant will
be located north of old experimental concentrator, on the side hill
below the present "high line"
railway track.
The ore to be pre-crushed in one
of the large crushers now in place
at the .mine and brought to the
concentrator over the high line
railway. A line crushing plant
will reduce the ore to approximr
ately one inch in size, and a system
of conveyors will transport the
crushed ore to large storage bins at
the head of the mill.
So gravity concentration will be
used in the new mill, the entire
tonnage being treated by the process known as. "oil flotation." In
'this process a small quantity of oil
(is mixed with the ore in fine grinding rod mills. This oil-impregnated
pulp, diluted with water, is then
passed through a series of cells,
which inject into the pulp a large
volume of low pressure air in the
form- of small bubbles. The air
bubbles,, rising to the surface, carry
up the valuable mineral particles,
the worthless material passing
away at the end of the cell. The
frothy mixture containing the
valuable mineral particles is theo
treated in large circular settling
tanks, whose function is to move
<Water from tne pulp. A battery
/of filters further reduces the moisture content and the comparatively
dry concentrate is ready for the
; smelter.
The concentrating plant will
rconsist of a crusher building,, con-
' veyor system, coneentratorbuilding,
dewatering tanks and filter building. The plant will be designed
for an ultimate capacity of 3,000
tons in three units of 1,000 tons
nominal capacity. Coristruction
work on the first unit will start as
soon as plans can be drawn and
material assembled. Tailings will
be stored in the flat below concentrator site.
In order to handlex conoertrates
from the new mill, certain changes
will be made in the smelter. These
may include the erection of a new
sintering plant. Machine shops,
eleotricshop and foundry #111 be
1 altered or enlarged to handle mpre
efficiently the construction work, in

Catholic Mens' Club
Give Entertainment
On Wednesday, December 31st,
at the Recreation Hall, Anyox,
the Catholic Mens' Club. Entertainment announced as a musical
ensemble, drew a large crowd.
Seats were reserved, and long
before 8.15, the time set for the
curtain raising, all accommodation
was taken up with the exgelStjian
of a few seats in the rear ■rear's.'.'
As the heading of the bill implied, music was the main portion
of the programme, rendered by
different artists, both on and off
the stage, every number of which
was really enjoyed by the audience.
Those who deserve praise for the
delightful musical part of the programme were:- the orchestra, under
Mr. Liddle; the Anyox Band,
under bandmaster Varnes; Jimmy
Prevost, banjo expert, and Harold
Mclnnis, the^ one-man band, who
almost brought down the house.
The stage setting and scenic
effects were exceptionally artistic,
and reflect great credit upon T. P.
Ryan, who was the presiding
genius of the show.
; Aftwngtthet-vocalists, premier
place' must be given to two old
favorites, Mrs. Watson and Max
Morrow, whose sweetsrendering in
a duet of "Sympathy," was about
the best we have heard in Anyox
for some time, and called for an
encore.'
The Harmony Four, in tv very
pretty setting—the ladies sitting
on a swing, illuminated in colors,
singing a quartette—was much
enjoyed.
A domestic tragedy,'a sketch in
which a newly wed wife1 is very
unhappy with a drunken husband.
Miss Violet Eaton was rather
easy with her husband, but under
the circumstances, P. Draudson,
the drunken husband, became more
sober, the longer he was on the
stage. The part of Norah, the
Irish cook, was very cleverly handled by Miss R. Champion.
The juveniles, Bonnie Chapman
and Jean Moffatt, two exceptionally
clever youngsters, gave a first-class
presentation of Valentine and' his
South American belle, in Argentine
tango, which brought forth thunderous applause.
Cy. Greenwell and Harry Down,
in a double turn, singing and talking comedians, should have had a
little more light on the subjeot.
The closing item, Justice up-to-
date a burlesque murder trial, was
a scream from start to finish. J.
Tynemouth, as the judge, being a
capable leader of a bunch of comedians, ■ including Messrs. Berry,
Down, Autterson,' Greenwell and

Ore Strike on B. C.
Silver, at Stewart
According to authoritative advices, says the Portland Canal
News, the crosscut tunnel being
driven by the B. C. Silver property
has cut the main Premier vein at a
depth of about 300 feet, and a distance of somewhat over 1000 feet
from the portal.
This is undoubtedly the most
sensational news that the camp has
had for some time, and will result
in attracting additional interest to
this section; for it is no secret that
the B. C. Silver is the first Bhglish
"venture in this section in latter
years, and its progress has been
■very closely watched by English
raining interests. Now that it has
met with success, old country
capital will have additional incentive to take hold and develop other
properties.
Anyox Basketball
The Anyox Senior Basket-ball
league season opened on Monday
January 29th., in the new A. C. L.
Gymnasium, where two games
were played. All four teams entered in the race for the top storey,
were seen in action, and the fans
who crowded the limited 'space
alloted for spectators, had an opportunity to sine each team up and
speculate as to which was the
most likely aggregation. Many
and varied were the opinions expressed. However it is somewhat
early to make any assertion as to
which is the most likely team,
because they all played a snappy
game, sometimes a little rough, but
. that can be eliminated by practice
and strict adherence to the rules
by the referees.
. The following is the line-up of
the teams showing the individual
scoring of each player opposite the
name:

Burdick, Logan & Company strongly
advise sale of short term bonds. Best
authorative opinion in London and
New York expect sterling to touch
par inside of six months. This means
Canada, her provinces and municipalities can borrow in London, once
again the world's cheapest money
market, where interests rates are
lower than in 1913. In order to assure
the present rate of interest over a long
term of years,-holders of short term
securities should sell without delay,
and re-invest in long term securities,
which will appreciate in value as interests rates drop.
Vancouver Bond Market
The event of the week is the new
issue of P. Burns & Co's Ltd. first
mortgage 61-2 percent. 20 year bonds,
in -denominations of $1000 $500 and
$100. Principal and interest are payable in Canada, London or New York,
at the option of the holder, at par of
exchange. The name and business of
Pat Burns needs no introduction to
the. people of British Columbia. For
over 30 years with uniform success,
this great business, starting in a very
humble way, has served the people in
the distribution* of very necessary
food supplies, and further by the vision and generosity of Pat Burns himself
on more than one occasion, has stepped
between the cattle rancher and disaster. Pat Burns has faced his responsibilities as the West's_largest packer
manfully, and his material success is
not begrudged him by any Westerner,
With assets of eleven million dollars
as against $3,500,000, comprising this
bond issue, and earnings nearly three
times the bond interest charges, with
the splendid character and reputation
of the man behind the bonds, this
issue undoubtedly represents the best
industrial bond issue that has been
offered the Canadian public for many
years. Offered at 100 and accrued
interest to date of delivery, the.splen
did response made by the people of
B. C. to this offering is an ample
evidence of the high opinion in which
the security and tho head of the firm
is held.
Burdick Logan & Co. Ltd., are glad
to help in the distribution of this issue
and applications should be forwarded
to them without delay, in order to
prevent disappointment. - The bonds
will be ready for delivery on or about
February 15th. It is hoped that this
is only the first Western Company
that will appeal to the west for the
funds necessary to expansion of
Western business. If Western bus!
ness men growing with the growth of
the West, caniiot look with confidence
to their own people tor the funds so
necessary for expansion of legitimate
successfulenterprises to whom can they
look? If the west has not confidence in
Itself, who will have? The proceeds of
this bond Issue are to be used by P,
Burns & Co. Ltd. for the expansion of
their business.
With American capital in control
of our pulp and. paper mills, most of
our lumber mills, our paper Companies
and many of our great mines (It is only
by the veriest accident that 40 percent,
of the great Premier is secured to
British Columbians "by the energy of
Messrs Trites. Wood and Wilson), it is
high time indeed that British Columbians with capital and experience, give
some definite evidence of their willingness to help develop the wonderful
resources of the "greatest organized
territory in the world.

Anyox Births, Deaths,
Etc., for Year 1922
That Anyox is one of the healthiest towns in the world in which to
live, is proven by the following
records of deaths, births and marriages for 1922, which has been
issued by the Government Agent's'
office.
The records for the year show
that there were 47 births, 21
deaths, and 10 marriages. The
number of births being over 100
percent, more than deaths. When
it is considered that hundreds of
men are employed in the hazardous
occupation of mining and smelting,
the death rate is unusually low,
and this fact speaks volumes for
the activity of the "Safety First"
officials. There are about 250
families in Anyox, and the fact
that 47 children were born during
the year shows that Anyox is doing
its part towards increasing the
population of this vast, but sparsely
populated Dominion of Canada.
